Patterns often keep us feeling stuck. We might know that we “should” change something but there is something that keeps drawing us back. How do we overcome this? Luckily there are many ways. It is a highly empowering action to overcome patterns. By doing this, you become more in line with your true self. YOU are not just a combination of various beliefs and habits. You are something much more than that, though your habitual ways of living might appear to overshadow the true you sometimes. Here is one way to break through our inner resistance to change. VISUALIZE yourself as someone who is greatly empowered and does not remain stuck in unnecessary habits. If you respond well to certain music, put on a song that invigorates your inner sense of freedom. Realize that you always have access to this, it is often just your thoughts and feelings that get in the way. Then use tools to help you get there and feel that way more consistently I’ve found tonic herbs to be the overall best tool for increasing empowerment, so that habits do not stay as ingrained. They can uplift you beyond laziness and inaction. Let them work on you from the ground up. Second to that, or first, depending on where you want to start would be overall diet. By eating in a way that empowers you, that vision of yourself that you can sense as a possibility can be more easily obtained. For many people, this is likely to be a diet high in raw fruits and vegetables. For increased assimilation so that you get more from your food, blending raw fruits and vegetables to create green smoothies or raw soups can be a very powerful approach. Stay open to your intuition, though, and add in other foods as you see fit. A third step would be to let go of negative feelings using The Sedona Method, or EFT. By addressing the thoughts and feelings that keep our patterns in place, you can begin to free yourself of them.
